Grian. Ga., Aug. 19.—The Brooks
(Ga.) correspondent of the News nnd
Boa has a letter from Sam Boykin,
wbo Is now In Cblckamauga, in
which be anys that ho believes that
Joe Brown will carry ovary county

Dear Sir: —
- My attention has been called to an
article In Thursdays Herald by my
oppouent, Mr. A. B. Kates, of Black-
shear, In which article ho charges me
with circulating report* concerning
a mutter between himself and cer
tain ol his clients. I n reply I beg to
say that I have not circulated any
Buck rumor ua 1 know nothing ot
the facts, except as I have heard
them dlecussod by Interested parlies
and other*. In thla discussion
htve never heard the name of any
except Mr. Bates mentioned and I do
not believe his efforts to excite aym-
pat hy by referring to my III* Ions,
friend Lawton Walker, or bit widow,
will divert attention from \hlmislf.
An a matter of fact, I know tbnt if
Mr. Walker had bad any thing what
ever to do with the caae referred to,
no crltlcietn whatever or would ever
have bee„ made, for he was a man
above reproach D every respect nnd
the breath of aueplclon has never res
ted against him and no one would
resent eve n a suggestion against him
quicker than I, for I knew him nnd
I knew him to be one of God’s noble
men. Mr. Estes Is the flret one wbo
trios to disturb the memory of n
noble men, who le now In hie grays,
and that for political purposes too.
I resent; this t|ctlon and Condemn
him for it.
Mr. Estea la entitled to all the com
fort be can get out of the letter I
wrote him four yeera ego when be
was elected to the legislature. At
that time t really thought he would
make a good representative, hut
when he dellberatly went back on
the people and fought and voted j
against their interests and wlahes, j
and supported (Cio liquor Interest* >
of Georgia, voting and working a-1
gainst the temperance bill, I realized j
that I was mistaken In (he man and:
I am now ready to apologize to the
people of hla county for having writ- 1
ten the letter. Tho people of hi*,
own county refused to endorse him,
at the poll* at the succeeding election, j
judge Mitchell having been elected j
over him. Hla own people thus con
demned him and ao do I.
I understand that some of bta ad-j
berents, n very few, are expecting to
spring n surprise on the morning of
the 93rd. I desire to warn the yours
now that It Is absolutely, untrue ana
Is to be done solely to prejudice the
Hoke Smith supporters,' A majority
of whom are also my eupporlers.
Very truly yours,
T. A. Puker.
